FALL SPORTS PROGRAMS

Soccer                      SOMO has a soccer program               for everyone!

 

Senior Soccer Our Senior Soccer Program is designed for athletes ages 21 and older. We plan to field at least one 7 v7 mid to high level team, and will field a second team if there is athlete and coaching interest. We will also provide a skill /developmental level if there is interest. Our Senior Soccer Program will hold try-outs to determine the number of interested athletes and skill ability. Try-outs will be held from 10:00-11:30 on Saturday August  30th and Saturday September 6th at Dewey Local Park . Weekly practice will be held on Saturdays from 10-11:30 through October. The grand finale of the season is The State Fall Fest on October 25th. Any player interested in training on a Senior Soccer team must sign up online and show up at try-outs! Our Coaching Staff: Tim Powers, Nancy Lloyd, Alan Seifert and Bob Golden welcome anyone interested in helping out with coaching . Contact Tim Powers, Head Coach at tepwing@yahoo.com. Due to the late arrival of this issue of the Relay, details about the soccer program will be emailed to all past players regarding season start and try-outs. All interested players must either sign up online or mail in the  sign-up form.
